HELP ME: I can't remember!

With Blue Monday coming, denouncing bullying in our schools, I am shocked that we now believe… you can be a bully in high school and just say, “I don’t remember.” Or, “If I did, I’m sorry.”

Is there even one person in America who believes that Mitt Romney can’t remember (unlike the other five guys involved) chasing a sissy-looking guy, taking him down and cutting off his hair while he screamed for help?

Why doesn’t Mitt Romney just fess up to that terrible mistake, like a man, and then say he has always regretted it? He could join to be a leader of the anti-bullying campaign, but instead, he is hiding, like a coward, in the “I can’t remember” shadows. Shame on Mitt Romney!

A bully in high school. A corporate raider later. Maybe they are not that different! Often, it’s been reported that when Romney’s Bain Capital would buy a company, they commonly had a meeting of the employees and told them they were all fired but could sign up to be rehired — over that at that table for lower pay and lower benefits. Sounds like Romney’s bullying tendency lasted longer than high school.

What a proud moment. A Bully Good Presidential candidate.
